Popular Post mockingbird Posted October 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2019 I have 4 tourist visa's and 1 border run 30 day exempt, all extended, in my passport over the last 2 years. I'm flying home to Ireland in a couple of weeks from Suvarnabhumi. Reading about all the stories of problems entering Thailand, I was wondering if people can have problems when leaving Thailand? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritTim Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 You will have absolutely no problem leaving. However, if you want to return as a tourist any time in the near future, be very careful how you do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Overstay is the only issue on leaving.... they might well be glad to see you go and getting back in would be stressful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you're right. They will be glad to see the back of me. I was lucky enough to be able to retire at 45, have spent the last 2 years coming and going on tourist visas, blissfully unaware that I was offending all of Thailand in doing so, and apparently I'm worse than the devil in Thai immigration eyes now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you’re one of the reasons immigration is tightening up on tourist visa entries. Anyway good luck to you. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't blame immigrations for comments made by unhinged Thai Visa posters. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame that it has to be like that, I don't think you were offending all of Thailand as you say, only the Thai authorities, but you know how easily offended they are particularly where westerners are concerned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had two altercations with IOs at my local IO, both times they had to go to their boss and both these times I was proved right. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldera Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Leaving Thailand is always a pleasure, outbound immigration officers always seem relaxed and are sometimes outright friendly. That's hardly surprising though - if I had the choice between working an inbound lane and an outbound lane, I'd choose outbound as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
